‘Book Tastings’ are introducing young readers to new authentic Indigenous learning resources in @rupertschools

These new books are part of district-wide initiative to expand the variety of Indigenous literature available for readers of all levels. The books were selected through a collaboration between School District 52`s Indigenous Education Department @wapsigatgyet and individual school librarians and acquired with support from the Prince Rupert Port Authority and AltaGas. ...

Students across all @rupertschools now have access to numerous new books that feature authentic Indigenous voices, stories, and experiences.

These new learning resources were chosen in collaboration with Indigenous Education Department, SD52 @wapsigatgyet and individual school librarians and acquired with support from the #PrinceRupert Port Authority and AltaGas.

The goal is to create greater equity and better reflect the demographics of our community, so students of all reading levels see themselves represented in the literature available at their school. ...

The Prince Rupert Port Authority’s harbour patrol vessel, the Charles Hays, has a fresh new look after an intense refit.

On top of a new paint job and decals, other additions include a new hot water tank, interior diesel heaters, flooring, and some exterior electronics. The vessel also underwent preventative engine and outboard drive maintenance before being successfully launched back onto the water on April 28.

The Marine Operations crew is excited to complete the long-awaited upgrades and having both patrol vessels - the Charles Hays and Amwaal - running smoothly to support the safety and security of the Port of #PrinceRupert.

We are marking the tenth anniversary of our Green Wave program by honouring five companies for their outstanding participation in the initiative last year.

The recipients of the 2022 Green Wave Award include container shipping companies @cosco_shipping_official, @msccargo, and SM Line, along with liquified gas shipping line, Navigator Gas LLC, and @bcferries.

The Green Wave program provides financial incentives to shippers who voluntarily invest in environmentally sustainable practices. Commercial vessels are assessed and allotted savings on their harbour dues at the Port of #PrinceRupert based on the magnitude of their air emission and underwater noise performance.
